Abstract:
Objective To construct and identify the efficacy of a lentiviral vector harboring RNAi sequence targe-ting NSBP1 gene. Methods Three siRNA targeting the NSBP1 mRNA were designed, the pGCSIL-GFP-NSBP1 lentivirus vectors were constructed and confirmed by DNA sequencing. A total of 293T cells were co-transfected with pGCSIL-GFP-NSBP1, pHelper1.0 and pHelper2.0 for the virus stocks produced, the titer of the virus was test-ed. After lentivirus transfecting into DU145 ceils, Western-blot and MTT methods were used to determine the ex-pression and biological activity of NSBP1 gene, the cells were transplanted into nude mice, then inhibitive effect was observed. Results PCR analysis and DNA sequencing demonstrated that the RNAi sequence targeting the hu-man NSBP1 gene was successfully inserted into the lentiviral vector. The titer of the recombinant]entiviral vector was 2 × 10~8TU/mL. NSBP1 protein expression level in transfected cells was significantly decreased and growth rate of cells transfected with lentivirus was decreased by MTT assay, the downregulation of NSBP1 reduced growth rate of transplantated tumor, whereas tumorgenicity was not influenced. Conclusion The construction of the]entiviral vector of NSBP1 has been successfully prepared and NSBP1 plays an important regulatory role in androgen-inde-pendent prostate cancer cell proliferation.
